Abstract |
The Montgomery Township Housing Development (MTHD) is a 72-acre tract of land located in Somerset County, New Jersey. The housing development consists of 71 home sites. The original potable water source for each home was a private well drawing from the underlying aquifer. In 1978, the Borough of Rocky Hill, which is located near the site, sampled ground water from the Borough well and found it to be contaminated with trichloroethylene (TCE). Testing continued through 1983, and repeated evidence of TCE contamination prompted the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection (NJDEP) to sample the MTHD well. Results indicated the presence of TCE and other volatile organics in that and other surrounding wells. In 1981, 20 homes in the MTHD were connected to the Elizabethtown Water Company water mains. To date, 38 residences have hooked up. Due to the similarity of contaminants and the proximity of the MTHD and Rocky Hill Municipal Well Superfund sites, a combined RI/FS is being performed. The ROD focuses only on an alternate water supply for MTHD. The primary contaminant of concern is TCE, with secondary contaminants being other volatile organics. |
